Got this from http://globalnation.inquirer.net/cebudailynews/enterprise/view/20110225-322136/547-firms-in-C-Visayas-to-hire-1200-workers

Will be very helpful for new graduates this year to take part. About 547 companies in the Central Visayas will be hiring more than a thousand applicants.

Thanks to the increasing number of investors coming to Cebu and there is a noted increase in available jobs in the province, Jobstreet.com will be continuing to host a job fair at SM City Cebu which started last Feb. 25, 2011 to fill in around 1,200 available jobs in 547 companies in Central Visayas.

Every Friday they will have instant job processing and hiring while every Saturday there will be seminars on how to get hired

Jobstreet marketing director Yoda Buyco said they are holding Cebu Career Hub in partnership with SM City Cebu until May 25.

Buyco said the Cebu Career Hub was held first in Cebu where they see a lot of job requirements from different industries and fields including the business process outsourcing, information technology, finance, manufacturing and engineering.

“This serves as an answer to DOLE (Department of Labor and Employment) Secretary Rosalinda Dimapiliz-Baldoz when she said that we have to invest in our country's resource, our human resource to make us more competitive and employable. Cebu Career Hub is a way to help further empower our Cebuano job seekers,” Buyco said.

According to Buyco, there are 1,200 jobs from 547 employers in Central Visayas, mostly in Cebu, that job seekers can apply instantly every Friday or through their Job Board which they will also show at the booth located at the 2nd floor of SM City Cebu.

“In the whole of Vismin area, we have a total of 300,000 job seekers who can have access to the eight million jobs posted in our website which are located in all our areas including Malaysia, Singapore, India, Indonesia, Japan and the Philippines,” she said.

Out of the eight million jobs, three million are located in the Philippines from 15,000 employers.

Buyco added that 40 percent of the total number of job postings in the country are from BPO companies which need a lot of agents to handle voice calls and some managerial and supervisory positions.

“In Cebu I could say that 40 percent of job postings are also from BPO companies,” she said.

Buyco said that Stream Global alone which is joining the event needs to hire 60 to 70 people every week for their contact center operations at their office in Asiatown IT Park in Lahug, Cebu City.

Buyco added they are targeting fresh graduates and those who seek another career.

“All they need to do is drop by our booth from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and bring their updated resume. They can come on a Friday to get instant processing as we will be featuring four companies every Friday which will then accept applications and hire on the spot. Every Saturday we will provide free career services to enhance overall appeal of Cebuano applicants. We will do mock interviews and give tips on how to make winning resumes,” Buyco said.

Biggest Summer Job Fair in Cebu - Job Seek 2010 in SM CIty Cebu May 28-29

Here's a repost from Inquirer.net on one of the major job fairs in Cebu this time of year. Job Seek 2010 will be held in SM City Cebu on May 28-29 at the Cebu Trade Hall.


Dubbed “Jobseek”, the event is in line with the government's thrust for the private sector to actively participate in nation-building by providing employment to the people.

This is also an opportunity for companies looking for premier candidates to meet job seekers in the region.


For a very minimal cost, companies who want to join the Jobseek may expect a wide range of privileges before, during, and after the event.


Jobseek also happens on July 30-31, Sept. 24-25 and Oct. 29-30. Those interested may visit the SM Administration Office at the second level of The Northwing or call Mayen Fortuna at 2319851 or 2313446 to 47
